    Sebastian Plessner, Master's Student in EPA - The Founder of "Zimmerwald"

    Sebastian Plessner, studying Economic Policy Analysis, a master’s program at FEM, is turning rooms and offices into green spaces. His (non-profit) start-up "Zimmerwald", supported by the well-known student association Enactus, and other organizations, reminds us about the myth of “German Woodland”, which was already documented by Tacitus or in the Romantic period. The project is also enhancing the common botanical education of people, and their often just rudimentary knowledge of different tree species and care taking ideas. However, the most important matter of the project is to combine a mental health wellbeing with climate improvement.

    , it is quickly explained and is as simple as it is ingenious: "With Zimmerwald," so the recently published article in 'uni:magazin', "small trees will be supplied in complete packages, including an especially matched soil and plant pot. At the same time, they replace often-expensive houseplants, which must be imported. The “easy-care” trees can be kept within our offices and apartments for quite a few years, and afterwards will be planted into own gardens, or in a suitable partner forests."
